Hi Jeff:
I've read that Davis Bury Flex is very good (low loss) coax. I have
Cable X-Perts RG-8 (50 feet of it) as my feedline right now. Is it
worth my time and $ making a change to Davis Bury Flex or something
similar?
Personal opinion follows... take it for what little it may be worth...
The Davis RF Bury-Flex is just about equivalent to Belden 9913
low-loss coax, BUT it's better in the respect that it can be directly
BURIED for long periods of time with little degradation in the
polyethylene outer covering.
I use Bury-Flex exclusively between my Shack and the top of my tower,
a total of about 220' for each run.
This having been said, and for only a 50-foot run, used on HF, I'd by
lying if I said that you'd notice ANY substantive benefit from
switching from what you now have to Bury-Flex.
Good luck,
Tom Hammond N0SS
